NAME

Google::Cloud::Compute::V1::InstancesClient - Client library for Google Cloud Services

SYNOPSIS

use Google::Cloud::Compute::V1::InstancesClient;
use Google::Auth;

my $auth = Google::Auth->default();

# 1. High-performance gRPC Transport (Default)
my $grpc_client = Google::Cloud::Compute::V1::InstancesClient->new(
    credentials => $auth,
    transport   => 'grpc', # Optional: 'grpc' is default
);

# 2. HTTP/REST Transport
my $rest_client = Google::Cloud::Compute::V1::InstancesClient->new(
    credentials => $auth,
    transport   => 'rest',
);

# Execute service methods
my $res = $grpc_client->some_method( %params );

DESCRIPTION

Google::Cloud::Compute::V1::InstancesClient is an auto-generated client library for Google Cloud Services.

It provides a unified client interface supporting both high-performance HTTP/2 gRPC and HTTP/REST transports, with automatic Google Cloud Application Default Credentials (ADC) resolution and typed Protocol Buffers message handling.

SOURCE

Generated from the following Protocol Buffers schemas:

• google/cloud/compute/v1/compute.proto

CONSTRUCTOR

new

my $client = Google::Cloud::Compute::V1::InstancesClient->new(
    credentials => $auth,   # Optional: Google::Auth object (defaults to ADC)
    transport   => 'grpc', # Optional: 'grpc' (default) or 'rest'
);

ATTRIBUTES

credentials
